You know, flipping the channels tonight and seeing on twitter that CNN failed to run live with the Ft. Hood press conference, I think they should put me in the 8pm time slot. Their ratings suck because the network does. All of its major personalities are on the left, except for Lou Dobbs, who is a populist, not a conservative. They need a voice on the right willing to cover the news no one else at the network seems willing or interested in covering.
Consider this an overnight open thread.
House Vote On Saturday: What To Do?
Swamp_Yankee Friday, November 6th at 1:28AM EST (link)Seems like there is a lot of good cheer over the election, but it also seems distracting.
Two days to focus. What should people do. I think the pro-life Dems are going to be a big problem. Maybe target about five fence sitting Dems tommorow? Have regional faith based groups reach out to pro-life Dems?
We’ve worked so hard. I’d hate to see this thing pass by two or three votes and realize we spent days analyzing the election or discussin peripheral issues.
Not Dead Yet!
A Call To Act Now
Maelstrom Friday, November 6th at 2:07AM EST (link)I spent time today contacting my Rep’s and Senators. They seem to have forgotten the energy of the town hall meetings this summer. A not-so-gentle reminder is necessary. Be respectful, yet forceful. I made sure they knew they were getting no dollars and no votes should they vote for this health care boondoggle. In fact, my friends, family members and myself will actively work to see them removed from office in November. I asked them to scrap it and begin anew. Hopefully if enough of us speak out, combined with the results of Tuesday’s elections, a loud message will get through their thick skulls. We must do all we can to protect the Constitution and our liberty. Remember that the Blue Dogs are the most vulnerable to be swayed. Act Now! God Bless America.
I find your lack of faith….disturbing.

A basic fallacy on CNN
Adjoran Friday, November 6th at 2:56AM EST (link)If they were willing to cover stories from a right or even “balanced” point of view, they could do it without you. They have made the evidently conscious determination NOT to do so, so you would be among the last persons considered.
They have chosen a path to oblivion, confident in their faith that their sacrifice shall be rewarded When De Revolution Come.
The history of such revolutions teaches us otherwise, but why get all tangled up with facts?
What could we call your show on CNN?
bags64 Friday, November 6th at 6:04AM EST (link)“EE @ 8″…nah, cause everyone west of Georgia wouldn’t tune in at the same time.
“Start your Evening off Right”…nah, too wordy.
“Right from the Start” or “Right from the Heart”… hmm
“All the News the Left Won’t Cover”

So unemployment hits 10.2%
itrytobenice Friday, November 6th at 8:49AM EST (link)Thank goodness President Peter Principal flushed a trillion dollars down that stimulus rat hole. It worked like a charm. He’s so groovy.
The problem with America is stupidity. I’m not saying there should be capital punishment for stupidity, but why don’t we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
It will be interesting to see how Obama
izoneguy Friday, November 6th at 8:53AM EST (link)spins the “over 10% Unemployment” figure….
Maybe he will give a shout out to double digits?

RedBeard Friday, November 6th at 9:25AM EST (link)President Obama: “10.2% unemployment is better than we projected, proving that my programs are working to save or create jobs. And my Dental Czar, Dr. Buster McYankem, has determined that the coins found under children’s pillows are conclusive proof that the Tooth Fairy is working also. Good night, and God bless me.”

Admit it, you would hate working at CNN. Going into work everyday just to see that murderer Sanchez. Heck they would probably make you split a show with him just to see how long you last.
CNN felt that didn't need to cover the Ft. Hood
Scope Friday, November 6th at 12:54PM EST (link)presser. Obama already made his statement, of course long after he thanked some idiots for a wonderful conference, and giving a shout out to someone in the audience. This, as we just had a major bloodbath, with 13 killed, and another 30 injured. Hey, it was only the military who the idiot in chief threw under the bus long ago.
From Police Sgt. Kim Munley's bio on Twitter:

Isn't CNN now below HLN in ratings?
bk Friday, November 6th at 1:26PM EST (link)I’m showing my age here, but when I think of HLN I still think of the circa 1980 channel that had voiceovers of UPS reports with scrolling still pictures.
